Colien, International President of the Inilepondcnt Order of B'liai B'rith, is doing its level best to put this affair over in such a manner as to reflect trc<lit and honor upon Zion Lodge as well as upon our beloved International President.
Louis Rosenthal, as head of the locil B'nai B'rith organization, is very opti¬ mistic concerning the outcome; of tlic big celebration. He is cooperating with the members of the arrangements com¬ mittee, not only in .securing new, mem¬ bers, but in outlining the program ¦, for tile occasion.
As Chronicle readers well know, there have been during the past two or three weeks many celebrations in almost every state of the Union in honor of the 70th birthday anniversary of Alfred M. Co¬ hen. In common with the other com. niuliities which have arranged similar events, Columbus Jewry is expecting a. real gala occasion on the 2.5th of No¬ vember at the Progress Club. A num¬ ber of prominent Ben. B'riths of near¬ by cities have been invited to participate in the festivities.
Zion Lodge's degree teain will induct Ihc Alfred M. Cohen class. The team is composed of Aaron M. Neustadt, President j Jack B. Wolstein, vice-presi¬ dent; Robert L. Mellman, treasurer; Isadore Walton Garek, assistant moni¬ tor; Justin L. Siliman,. warden; Ben Z, Neustadt, monitbr. ,
.Alfred M. Cohen has devoted a li/e time of service to' Jewish causes and Jewish institutions.' He has been head of the I.e. B. B. since 192.5. His serv¬ ices have been recognized by all Jewish leaders everywhere. It Is therefore fitT ting and proper that Zion Lodge in com¬ mon ! with' 'all B'nai B'rith . Lodges throughout the. world induct a class in his hcinor.
Don't forget to reserve Monday' eve¬ ning; November 25th, for this auspicioiis occasion, It will be a red'Ietter event which yoii cannot afford to miss.

Local Jews and Gentiles Cooperate on
Behalf of the 1929 Community
Fund Campaign
Installment Plan Is Open To Community Fund Donors—Drive
Was Officially Opened On Tuesday, November 12th"-
Three Thousand Workers Have Taken the Field
To Put Campaign Over
Iti order to constimmate in a success¬ ful fashion the Way Coiiiinutiity Fund. Campaign, more than a score of Coluin¬ bus' most prominent business antl pro¬ fessional men and women have turned organization mechanics. Leaving their ofTiccs or homes during the day and miss¬ ing their dinners at night, the volunteers have met with Campaign Manager W. C. Newton, of the Ohio Bell Telephone Go., divided the city into nine divisions, commandeeretl teams, and set to work on. the job of saving 52' charitable and wel fare agencies who depend on the fund each year.for sustenance.
"For the Honor of Columbus!' is their glogan, and "We Must Not Fail," their watchword. For four years, the Colum¬ bus fund drive has missed its goal. This year, they believe, it can and will reach the $718,518 mark set by tlic pairticipat- ing agencies, *
Soitie of the persons, aiding Mr. New¬ ton in this year's drive are pictured else¬ where in this issite of the Chronicle. Amoiig the people of the Jewish faith who are giving their loyal help and co¬ operation are:—Mrs, Fred Lazarus, Jr., Mr. Allen Gundcrshcimer, Mr. Joseph Schonthal, Mr. Edwin J. Schah farber, Rabbi Jacob, Tarshish. and Mr. Alfred J. Kobpcker. Others who, are active in the campaign arc Curtis C. Lattimer, S- P, Bush, Dr.' Wni. Oxiey'Thompson, Myron B. Gessaman, Dr. M. H. Lich- liter, David P. Anderson, Mrs, Nell Goodwin, ,E. O. GifFord. Mrs, Lester Merritt. Ralph Van,, Cloud, L B. Deems, Mrs. Edgar PlancTc, Col. Alfred Ballin, A. E.'Fletcher, S. P. Barrows, R. L, Dickenson, G. Edvvin Smith, John J Chester, Jr;, and Mrs. Elvira Ferris.
As the ¦in2& Community Fund Cam¬ paign swung-into line last Monday, No¬ vember 11th, W: C. Newton, Campaign general chairman, issued his final appeal for, support of the fund and called at¬ tention to the installment plan under which contributors may make their do¬ nations in five payments at intervals, of about two months.'
These payments may begin Dec. 1 and end Aug. L It Was pointed out by,Mr. Newton that this plan will enable con¬ tributors to give liberally without hard¬ ship. ' ^ '¦ CAN GIVE MORE
The success of the installment plan al¬ ready has been demonstrated, as ;5olic- itors have reported that a large number of ¦ coijtributors have voluntarily as¬ serted that, by this arrangement,' they will be able to double the donations they had intended to make and, in some cases, have tripled them.
Mr. Newton said Monday:
"Too many people regard the Coin¬ munity Fund as they would a single campaign for any one of the participat- mg charitable agencies. This, of course, IS m error. It should be clearly recog¬ nized tjiat this annual drive substitutes for 53 separate ones.
"Because of this fact, the leaders of the campaign are crtiphasizing that sub¬ scriptions may be paid in five equal in¬ stallments, so that no hardship.'; will be incurred by any contributor* who recog¬ nizes his full obligation."
CONTKIBUTIONS COMING IN
According to Mr, Newton, the. plan effectively solves the problem of the con¬ tributor who wants to'give liberally, but
George Shustick Greenwald, and Barnett Solomon, secre¬ taries; and the following trustees:—Mr Louis Mendel, Mr, Joseph Solove, and Mr. Harry Cooper.

A well-pre¬ pared supper will be . set'ved. All Chronicle readers regardless of Syna- gogal affiliation are urged to be present.
EZRAS NOSHIM SOCIETY TO
MEET AT AGUDATH ACHIM
SUNDAY AFTERNOON
On Sunday afternoon, Nov. 17th, at 2 o'clock, at the Agudath Achim Syna¬ gogue, the Ezras Noshim Society will hold its regular meeting. All members are urged to be present. Business imit- ters of vital importance will be trans¬ acted.
to whom even a $10 payment all at onct il .hardship. By stretching his pay¬ ments over six months he easily can give $2.j and usually is happy to do so.
Volunteer contributions already have begun to. pour into, the campaign head¬ quarters, at 47 East Gay street. Several of these givers explained that they ex-' pected to be away during the campaign and did not want to be "missed."
"And that,", said Mr. Newton Monday, "is indicative of the fine spirit that ife pervading this entire campaign. The awakening of this urge to support the fund is in evidence on every hand. It is an excellent omen of success."
MUST PAY OWN- CHECK
A new factor entered the campaign Monday when workers. under H. D. Bishop, captain of team No. i of the manufacturers division, announced a se¬ ries of "pep" luncheons all their own.'
These luncheons will be known as "pep Dutch luncheons" and will be held every noon during the campaign. The "kicker!' to the plan is that every, mem¬ ber will pay his own check. The object is to get together, daily for exchange of ideas and to.report progress. .
The 8000 volunteer workers who will take the field-Tuesday were champing at the bit. Monday and the "let's go" spirit was evident. Telephones at headquar¬ ters rang alt day as the workers called for last.minute instructions.
HARD TO HOLD BACK
Dr. W.O, Thompson, president emeri¬ tus of .Ohio Staite university, who,, as campaign secretary, replaced Fred C. Croxton, who severed his connection."; with the fiind Nov. 1, said Monday thai "these fellows are becoming harder and harder to hold i^backitrtever saw sucR an enthusiastic bunch."
Mr. Newton,-paying tribute to the army of rtien and women who are sac¬ rificing their own interests to put over the campaign, said:
"These volunteers liavje taken, up this gigantic task with a cheerfulness and enthusiasm that is wonderful to see.' B is costing every one a pretty penny to give all this time to the campaign.
"The greatest help the public can give them is, to plan all contributions in ad¬ vance and' be ready for the solicitors when they call; This will save much time and work. If a solicitor has.to make two or three calls upori everyone, it will he an endlfess job."
An aged man, evidently in poor cfr- cumstances and suffering from an injury incurred .in industry, limped into the Community Fiind headquarters at 17 East Gay street, Monday, and laid down a crumpled $1 bill on the desk of Gen¬ eral Chairman W. C. Newton. ¦
"That's all I can give^ because it's all I've got," he said, "but last year, when I. was out of work and things looked pretty tough for my family, I got some help from one of the agencies that the fund supports.
"This year I've got a job and aifn do¬ ing pretty well. That dollars is to help some other fellow who may be in tbe same fix I was." He' refused to give his liame.
Two, other persons gave |5 each "in memory of a friend who would want to give it if he were Ijere."
